Hi Brad...
I have been going through the archives of this mailing list regarding the
SCO audio support by Marcel and Max in 2002 discussing the demerits in the
hci_usb driver to support SCO... (
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=2651899)
Is the problem discussed rectified??
My question is
1) Does the hci_usb.o module support SCO???
2) Iam planning to set up 2 USB dongles (CSR) for headset and Audio gateway
each...
Can I use scotest to send voice?? will I face problems??

Iam yet to write the code
